Random phone call from a psychiatrist
I just had the strangest phone call ever: (with stupid cacti)
Doctor: Hello is this Corporal Montero?
Me: Yeah.
Doctor: Well good afternoon Corpora-
Me: You woke me up
Doctor: OH I'm so sorry, is this a bad time?
Me: Is it ever a good time when you wake up?
Doctor: (laughter on the phone) True true, well do you have a few minutes?
Me: Yes I do
Doctor: Ok good. Well.... (introduces herself as some psychiatrist and she starts asking me all sorts of questions)
Doctor: Are you sleeping well?
Me: HAHA no
Doctor: Oh, may I ask why not?
Me: No.
Doctor: Do you feel like you need to talk to someone about it?
Me: No.
Doctor: Ok... Are you feeling any sort of combat stress?
Me: I'm not in combat, I'm in bed.
Doctor: Suffering from any symptoms of PTSD? Any military stress that carried over into civilian life?
Me: Yeah.
Doctor: What would that be?
Me: Military phone calls that wake me up
(more questions)
Doctor: So do you work or go to school?
Me: Both
Doctor: Oh that's wonderful! What are you studying?
Me: Psychology
Doctor: You don't say?
Me: I just did
(more questions)
Doctor: Ok well Corporal Montero thank you for your time and I encourage you to seek out any veteran organization, especially the VA, to help with the transition
Me: Oh I found the VFW chapter of San Diego (veterans of foreign wars)
Doctor: Oh thats great! And are you comfortable with them?
Me: One dollar beer on tap?! Hell yeah! :hehe: (each vfw is really just a place to get smashed)
And eventually I hung up...
And now I can't go back to sleep >.>
